About this map

The Middle Fork Feather River and the South Branch Feather Falls Scenic Area dominate this section of the Plumas National Forest on the border of Plumas and Butte counties. The landscape is a complex network of high ridges like Hartman Bar Ridge and Lump Kin Ridge, interspersed with deeply cut watercourses such as Lava Top Creek and Kenebeck Creek.

Administrative and utilitarian outposts dot the forest, including the Pinchard Creek Work Center, Camp Eighteen, and the Mountain Spring House. Local history is visible in several legacy sites, from Bills Cabin (Site) to the Jackson Ranch. The map records a transition from traditional forest management and ranching to protected recreation, evidenced by the presence of both active resources like the Quarry near Quartz Hill and designated wilderness areas.
